Hope in the right place wasn't sure where to post! guess it is a type of transport!..anyway Halfords have a nice bike i want but it is only available in store miles away from me so i can get it delivered but it says sent ready for home assembly? how hard will it be to put together as not great at these type of things! anyone done it like this?
Thanks

These things are generally quite easy to put together. Chances are you will simply need to remove all the packing, put the handlebars and saddle on and adjust them. They usually come with any tools required to get it together - although they are usually cheap crap quality tools.

Quidco 6% ..If it is pricey (anything over £100) it may be worth looking into

Could you ask Halfords to deliver to their nearest store to you and set it up for you there?

Where do you live? I've heard bad things about Halfords bikes. Are you near a Decathlon? http://www.decathlon.co.uk/EN/your-decathlon-store-10695863/

There's nothing wrong with Halfords bikes, they do a very good range for the price.

I wouldn't recommend home assembly of a bike if you don't know what you're doing.
